1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

"Hidden populations" are difficult to identify because they have stigmatizing or illegal characteristics. For that reason, determining their size or prevalence in certain contexts is complicated. In those populations, traditional or direct methods, as population surveys, do not usually serve for this purpose, but indirect methods, based on incomplete data sources, can be useful.This work completes the original article published in Revista Española de Salud Pública in 2017: "Indirect methods to estimate hidden populations". Different methods are exposed, showing their indications and bias. To make an estimation as real as possible it is necessary to evaluate carefully the data available and analyze the risk of bias.
